With the Paddy Paddy Cup V sewn up last week by sleepingmaster, we now turn our attention to it’s sister competition, the Members Paddy Power Cup II. Over 900 Fantasy Football Scout members signed up, with hopes of qualifying for the first round of 512. As expected, the standard was very high, and the qualifying mark was set at a lofty 82 points for Gameweek 24.

That put 494 in the hat for round one, and forced 41 fantasy managers to rely on their overall rank to earn one of the remaining 17 spots. The list of all qualifiers can be viewed right here.

On to the first round draw then, which has been made and can be viewed right here. All 256 fixtures will be played over the upcoming Gameweek 25, and the result will follow shortly afterwards.

Our reigning champ, Kippax Kikkers (formerly Kippax Kolggers), is up against leekota, as he looks to defend his title.

Elsewhere, plenty of Scouts (not me) are in the mix – Mark takes on Shimmy, G-G-Granville has drawn Shehzu, Andy will square up to Lucas that is all, it’s Big Dunc Vs. ChrisHighwind, Pure Olivia is up against djembe, Anorak‘s been paired with Primprong, and Jonty will play johnd.

The prize? Well, once again sponsors Paddy Power are supplying the competition with some great prizes and we’re supplementing these with Amazon Vouchers. The prizes break down as follows:

  • Winner – £150 worth of free bets. £50 Amazon Voucher
  • Runner-up – £75 worth of free bets. £30 Amazon Voucher
  • 3rd Place – £50 worth of free bets. £20 Amazon Voucher

Remember, to claim a prize you will need a Paddy Power account and be aged 18 and over to be eligible. Prizes are also subject to Paddy Power’s terms and conditions.

If you’ve yet to register a Paddy Power account, then you can sign up via this site and get a free £20 when you register and bet £10.

Finally, if you set up an account and are going to bet with Paddy Power, always gamble responsibly.

    Re-post, lost on last page (sorry)

    Mig
    Evans – Richards – Kelly
    Demps – Val – McClean (Siggy?) – Silva – Bale
    RVP – Aguero

    Krul – Ba – McAuley – Simpson

    Pondering McClean > Siggy as I have no pressing concerns and see Siggy outscoring him in the next period of games. Could always save the transfer, but barring injuries I don’t really have any concerns next week, either.

    Thoughts?

    Evening all, anyone know how to get reliable news on whether injured players have made a return to training? Are there any blogs from people attending training sessions who will have reliable insight? The articles returned by Google really lack for the latest information.

    I've started following VDV on Twitter (prior to the Liverpool) game and there wasn't a peep from him about not making the game, or even being back in training. I can understand if the player's club doesn't want him tweeting about club matters, but other players (Barton?) seem to.

    I think this is an area where The Scout could focus on. Not reliable team news (no-one knows that), but details on which players are back in training. It seems a bit hit and miss.

    Any recommendations? (... and yes, don't know why I still have VDV!! :))

          It becomes about what's reliable tho. Is the blog always trustworthy? Can't imagine this site posting links to unofficial news, it would only get crucified if/when things panned out differently. Unless it didn't accept responsibility before hand. Mmm...

            I can't see many blogs being created to provide inaccurate information. Much more likely to get posts on the forum aledging certain things, or as we experienced with Van Persie last week, managers throwing up smoke screens.

            I don't see any harm in having links on here to typically reliable sources of information.

    Through in the cup but going to come down to captain choices potentially.

    Krul, Lindegaard
    Richards, J Evans, Kelly, Taiwo, Huth
    Dempsey, Silva, Bale, Sess, Valencia
    RVP, Dzeko, Ba

    Opponent

    Krul, Mingolet
    Richards, J Evans, Taiwo, Kompany, Simpson
    Dempsey, Silva, Bale, Sess, Valencia
    RVP, Ba, Graham

    Although guessing a lot of matches will be similar.

      Least you have Dzeko over Graham, so I'd say you should get more points there (I'd hope so since I have him too).

      Agree at how it's down to captaincy this week, which is why I'm more nervous for this week seeing as there's not really an outright, obvious captain choice.

      I'd swaying between Bale and RVP for me, would be Demps but don't have him/

      If Dempsey is a differential in your league and you're in a good position, RVP. If you need to make up some ground, Dempsey may just be your man. Sunderland's 120mins has effected my view. Probably shouldn't, but it does.

            I'm in London... well, Southend Airport proudly states it's a London Airport (like Stansted). No snow here.

            Ooh, nice part of the London around there. Zerodegrees must be a good place to get stuck in a snow storm 🙂

      if you are not worried about price drops/postponed games i'd save the ft. if you are, check out fiso/total fpl for the drops. if its postponed games leave the ft until sat morning when you'll know more

    Is it silly to captian a City player when you have 3 of them in your starting 11. It sort of means you will have 4. Too many eggs in one basket?

        Surely it would require a serious thumping for it to work out alright
